If You Could Only Watch Two TV Networks...

Which two would they be?

I view a lot of Fox Business. Geri Willis, Cavuto, Lou Dobbs & John Stossel in MHO do the best at presenting stories and opinion. They are not bombastic, let their interesting guest talk and they don't fudge and sensationalize like Fox News, MSNBC, CNN etc. They also stick to the important issues and don't spend much time on magazine style journalism with stories like the Zimmerman case, other murder trials, celebrity news and general fluff. They are more apt to be talking about events that are shaping the world.

Since you express opinions of news shows other than Fox Business I assume you must watch them also. I have no two favorites. My remote control is my friend. I seldom sit and watch news shows. When I do I tend to flip around alot. I find alot of pap and dribble on the cable and satallite. I used to listen to shortwave when I was in the high country, but seldom do anymore.
My political persuasion is as it has always been, I don't tend to need it validated nor contradicted.

I do like to watch movies, new or old at the cabin. Sometimes we just play cards.. JD

I watch a little CNN, but I prefer to read my news from papers. It is the only form of media that truly takes the time to get in all the details of a story. When you watch TV all you get is 15 second sound bites and commentary that is so dummied down it is insulting.

I use to read printed papers. Now, I opt for newspapers on-line. That way, I don't have all the old papers to throw away. A lot of news is old by the time it goes to print whereas their on-line papers are more current. Oh, and the other channel that I watch is the NFL Network. I wake up to NFL AM and I make NFL Total Access a daily part of my primetime viewing.

CNBC for stock quotes & ESPN for sports - unlike John & Pete I prefer folks with clothes on - as similar to on this forum - too much info about someone reveals more than one wants to know . I read a lot, hopefully able to ID folks who have something to offer, it's rarely in the newspaper.
